[Performing lympho-venous anastomoses at several levels of the lower extremity in primary lymphedema].
Operations were conducted on 41 patients, 31 of them had a primary form of lymphedema. Lymphovenous anastomoses (LVA) were formed in the region of the medial collector on the thigh in Scarpa's triangle, in the middle third of the leg, and on the dorsum of the foot. The results were good in the late-term postoperative period in 74.0% of patients. According to earlier studies, the formation of LVA in patients with primary lymphedema of the lower limbs only on one of the standard levels produces good late-term postoperative results in 57.8% of cases.
